        It was a Lion King movie. Of course people paid to go see it. Box office profits (tickets sold) do not equate to an enjoyable film.

        I’ve never heard of anyone IRL or online claim that film was worthy of their time.

        We all got catfished on that one but I’m not surprised. You cannot remake a classic. It will work only 1 time out of 50. The odds are never good.

        Jungle Book was an exception, imo.

          I know a person who loved the movie. Of course they haven‘t watched the original nor do they intend to because cartoons „are for children“. Some folks just watch anything that just gets advertised enough I guess.

    I thought the first movie was better. Inside Out 2 was fine and enjoyed it but it felt a bit more painful comedy wise than the first one and the story was less compelling.

      I’m a bit torn. While I think the overall first movie is better, as an adult… I very much connected to the inside story of the second one much more, as did most people I know that watched it.

    I had a hard time watching some of the Inside Out sequel, but now that I know how it ends I will feel a lot less stressed/anxious during a rewatch. Kind of like rewatching The Sixth Sense.

    I feel that I likely will rewatch the first movie more as it’s easier on my brain.

      It was certainly marketed as live action. Believe it or not, the opening sunrise shot is the only piece of live-action footage in the entire movie. The rest of the movie is photorealistic CGI animation.
